Twice the Surprise

Hello again!

In our last post, we went over wanting to revisit some “staples” of Twofold, and this post is largely going to be
focused on those changes. Not all of these changes are earth shattering or anything, largely a lot of last names, but
we wanted to throw it all out in the open regardless. To accompany this, we’ve managed to scrounge up some brand new
sprite roughs (emphasis on this word, of course~) for every single club member from Acotan.
(note: sprites are not necessarily to scale at this point in time)

Changes

Caprice’s top hat has been removed. We’re still playing with alternatives:
one,
two,
three,
four

Allison → Allison Merlo; Allison’s sunglasses have been removed.

Eileen Towers → Eileen Turner

Wallace → Wallace Bernard

Mekki Clarke → Millie Clarke

Heather → Heather Cunningham

Darren → Darren Baker; Darren’s been given glasses.

Tanya → Tanya Rivera; Tanya has been redesigned.

Characters that felt redundant or had extremely limited use (the only ones you’re aware of at this point are Izaac
and Lawe) have been cut.

One last big change: After having to part ways with Mehkanik, All-Maker initially agreed to write the entirety of
Twofold. While we were totally okay with this initially, it became obvious super quick that writing an entire VN and
drawing all the CGs for it would be an absolutely inhuman workload, we’ve done some re-organizing on that front. While
All-Maker will still be writing the Caprice path, Suriko has agreed to pick up the Millie path with his work on First
Snow done. The bulk of First Snow development has been slowly winding down as our to-do continues to shrink, and
re-examining Twofold has ended up going fantastically, so the transition period between both VNs should be relatively
smooth.

That’s pretty much it for now. Thanks for continuing to follow our development, and Happy Halloween!

SMUG HEATHER IS MY WAIFU

Man, Aco-tan's sprites look very different than the old ones stylistically, but very good as well. Mekki's new name is interesting, will need time to get used to it I think. Thanks for the update!

'We're six years into dev, burn the sprites and make better ones.'

And people call my standards ridiculous. Godspeed, you magnificent bastards.

BUCKETHAT OR BUST

honestly though it's the only one that isn't extremely hipster looking, but if you're going for that look i'd choose 2.

AnonNovember 09, 2017

Hat 2 looks cool

November 11, 2017

2. hipster hat best hat

anonNovember 15, 2017

2 fits i think, 4 makes her look like grandmother.

kevNovember 20, 2017

really really like 2/3 but 4 is also cool

no hat would be terrible though definitely don't do that

@the anon above me saying grandmother esque, #4 the bucket hat is more of a shy person hat you don't as much these days but is still around, it can still look cute as well

personally i'd prefer 2/3 though, with 2 looking slightly smart and cute, but 3 also having connotations of being a irish country/farming gal hat or something

depends how the character is written which would be best they are all drawn pretty nice looking in the options

The bucket hat is cute and feels the most casual, which fits her personality.
